Chapter 772: Journey to the West Sequel + Lotus Lantern - Transition
Thirteen years passed in the blink of an eye, and Chenxiang had grown up. After more than ten years of teaching by Sun Wukong, Chenxiang had already mastered the ability to protect himself.
One day, Erlang Shen Yang Jian and Xiao Tian Dog came to Huaguo Mountain to visit Chenxiang again. Chenxiang told Erlang Shen how much she missed her mother and begged Erlang Shen to take her to Huashan to see San Sheng Mun. Erlang Shen was quite moved, but when he thought about how the Jade Emperor had been staring at him and Huashan all these years, Erlang Shen had no choice but to refuse.
Ever since Erlang Shen impartially captured the Jade Emperor's daughters, the Seventh Fairy and the Eighth Fairy, and brought them back to Heaven, and bluntly exposed the Jade Emperor's attempt to show favoritism, the Jade Emperor appeared to approve of Yang Jian's work attitude, but secretly sent people to keep an eye on him. Once he found any signs of him violating the heavenly rules, he would question his impartiality as the god of justice.
Because of this, Yang Jian could not take Chenxiang to Mount Hua, because doing so would very likely draw the Jade Emperor's attention to Mount Hua. Once the Jade Emperor discovered that although Yang Jian had captured San Sheng Mu back to Mount Hua and imprisoned her under Mount Hua, he had actually dug a very comfortable place inside Mount Hua, where except for not being able to come out, there were no other restrictions. This would definitely cause great trouble to San Sheng Mu and Yang Jian himself.
Sun Wukong on the side couldn't stand it any longer. He rolled his eyes at Yang Jian and said, "Well, Sanyanzi, how come you have become so timid after becoming this damn God of Justice? You don't dare to do this or touch that!"
"My disciple wants to go to Huashan, so just let her go. Even if the Jade Emperor has any objections, I can just go to heaven and make a scene. I don't believe that the Jade Emperor is so stubborn that he is not afraid of me making a scene!"
Yang Jian frowned, not knowing how to tell Sun Wukong, the naughty monkey. However, Roaring Sky Dog couldn't bear to see his master being scolded by Sun Wukong, so he spoke up for Yang Jian and said, "Stinky monkey, what do you know?"
"It's not that Chenxiang can't go to Huashan, but what if the Jade Emperor finds out that the Third Holy Mother is not trapped under the mountain after he goes there?"
"You mean to make trouble in Heaven?"
Roaring Sky Dog sneered, "Hmph, don't let someone catch you and press you down the mountain again."
"The Journey to the West is over. If you are trapped under the mountain again this time, no one will be able to save you for five hundred years, five thousand years, or even fifty thousand years!"
Sun Wukong was choked by Roaring Sky Dog and immediately barked at him angrily, "Hmph! So annoying! This is not allowed, that is not allowed, can't I go in openly or can I ask Chenxiang to change into someone else's appearance and go to Huashan?"
When Xiaotian Dog heard this, he thought it was indeed a good idea, and immediately turned to look at Yang Jian, only to see that Yang Jian's brows were still furrowed, and his face was full of thought. After a while, Yang Jian finally spoke.
"Actually, I have a better idea."
Yang Jian called Chenxiang and Sun Wukong to his side and whispered to them about his plan. He hoped that Chenxiang would be like himself in the past, find the axe to chop open Mount Huashan and release the Three Holy Mothers openly.
"There is a colorful stone in the middle of Huashan Mountain with the New Heavenly Law embedded in it. I hope Chenxiang can get the Mountain-Splitting Axe in the name of splitting the mountain to save his mother and release the New Heavenly Law."
As the God of Justice, Yang Jian had long realized that there was something wrong with the current Heavenly Law. The old Heavenly Law was more about maintaining the rule of Heaven, ignoring the human heart rather than the happiness of the masses in the Three Realms. So he hoped that the new Heavenly Law could appear soon to replace the old one.
With a plan in mind, Chenxiang officially started to act. Before taking action, she decided to ask her two good sisters, Xiao Er and Lao San, for help.
After Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing completed the mission of obtaining the scriptures, one was named the Altar Purifier and the other was named the Golden Body Arhat. Neither of them was an important role, so the two simply left Lingshan, each found a place to build a temple, and came to Huaguoshan to take their daughter back.
The second child, who is now fifteen years old, has officially changed his name to Zhu Fengchun, and the third child, who is also fifteen years old, is now called Sha Shanshan. Chenxiang has changed his gender and no longer has a fiancée named Dingxiang, but even so, she still met the little fox Xiaoyu in the process of saving her mother.
Xiaoyu was taken home by the old fox to be raised. The life of an orphan and a widow was not easy. Yang Jian felt guilty and sent Xiaotian Dog to secretly deliver things to them from time to time, so he was also one of the insiders of Yang Jian's plan. The old fox felt that he was old and was afraid that he could no longer protect Xiaoyu in the future, so he deliberately asked Xiaoyu to make friends with Chenxiang, because Chenxiang was Yang Jian's niece and Chenxiang was destined to become an immortal in the future.
Because Xiaoyu approached Chenxiang with a purpose, she always felt a little sorry for Chenxiang when she was friends with him. In this life, without those misunderstandings and Yang Jian's seemingly coercive but actually waterproof operations, Chenxiang's process of splitting the mountain to save his mother went much smoother and faster.
Soon, he overcame most of the hardships in the original plot and successfully got the axe to split Huashan Mountain and released the new heavenly law.
When Ruyi came out of retreat, her cultivation had still not broken through to the peak of the late god level. She was a little disappointed, but during the past ten years of meditation, Ruyi realized a very important point, that is, if she wanted to break through to the god level and become a saint, it would be impossible for her to succeed with her current merits and character.
To break through and become a saint, one not only needs higher-level merits - that is, the merits of saving the world, but also needs luck. Ruyi is just an outsider to this world. If he has not made any great contributions to this world, it is impossible for him to obtain great luck from this world.
In addition to this, there is another point, which is the limitation of the world level. This world has somehow become the comprehensive mythological world it is today, but even the highest-level world of "Journey to the West" is not a world where saints can exist at will.
"What time is it now?" Ruyi had just come out of seclusion and didn't know where the plot had progressed to. Just as she was about to fly to the Heaven to find Ruoshui, she discovered that the entire Heaven was celebrating. She casually transformed herself into an inconspicuous heavenly soldier and blended into the crowd of celebrating people. Only then did Ruyi know that the new Heavenly Law had been born.
"So after I left, Yang Chan was captured by Yang Jian and taken back to Huashan?" Ruyi said helplessly, "Forget it, the new Heavenly Law has been released, Yang Chan should have been released."
Thinking of this, Ruyi turned around and planned to go to Huashan to see Yang Chan first, and by the way, find out what had happened outside during the years he had been in seclusion.
As for Tang Monk's flesh, the journey to the West is over and Tang Monk has turned into the Sandalwood Merit Buddha, so it can no longer be eaten.
"Tsk tsk, what a pity! I still haven't figured out what that will is."
